Black Boys on Mopeds

Dĺžka piesne: 03:53
Margret Thatcher on TV
Shocked by the deaths that took place in Bejing
It seems strange that she should be offended
the same orders are given by her

I´ve said this before now
you said I was childisht you´ll say it now
´remember what I told you
If they hated me they will hate you´

England´s not the mythical land of madame George and roses
It´s the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds
and I love my boy and that´s why I´m leaving
I don´t want him to be aware that there´s
any such thing as grieving

Young mother down at Smithfield
5 am looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
and the first word that they learned was ´PLEASE´

These are dangerous days
to say what you feel is to dig your own grave
´remember what I told you
if they were of the world they would love you´

England´s not the mythical land of madame George and roses
It´s the home of police who kill black boys on mopeds
and I love my boy and that´s why I´m leaving
I don´t want him to be aware that there´s
any such thing as grieving
